Wow, Wow - True love
Woman left with 'no nose and mouth' after horrific car crash weds the man who had a crush on her at high school - as he says 'love isn't about a face' :-
Man reveals he married high school crush after she was left with disfigured face
Father-of-two Jayaprakash, from India, said he met Sunitha at the age of 17
Fast forward 10 years, the couple proved their love can overcome any challenges
The pair drifted apart when Sunitha moved to Bangalore after finishing school
In 2011, Jayaprakash received a phone call Sunitha had been in a car accident
When he visited her in hospital he saw a 'disfigured face with no nose and mouth'
Despite her disfigurement, looks didn't discourage him from marrying her
'I was 17 when I saw a new girl walk past my classroom. I couldn't stop staring. I had never seen anyone like her,' he wrote.
'Over time, we became friends but my heart sulked every time I saw her with someone else. Soon, I stopped talking to her even though she had no idea why.'
The pair eventually drifted apart when Sunitha moved to Bangalore after they wrapped up school.
'I got into college but never met another soul like her,' he said.
But in 2007, he received a phone call on his birthday from Sunitha out of the blue.
'My heart started beating like the 17-year-old I was,' Jayaprakash recalled.
'The call lasted only two minutes but for me, it was like eternity. We stayed in touch occasionally, but soon got busy with our lives.'
And in November 2011, Jayaprakash received a life-changing phone call from a mutual friend saying Sunitha had been in a car accident.
'I thought it would be something minor, so I called her two days later. I did not recognise the voice that answered,' he recalled.
'When I went to visit, I saw a person with no hair, a disfigured face, no nose, no mouth and no teeth, walking like a 90-year-old. I was stunned. I broke down.
'That moment, I realised that I love her.'
And so Jayaprakash expressed his love for Sunitha by proposing to her.
'Later that night, I sent her a text. 'I am the only person who can take care of you. I love you. Let's get married',' he said.
'She called and I proposed again. She laughed but she didn't say no.'
From there, he moved to Bangalore to be by his wife-to-be's beside as she underwent surgeries.
By January 2014, the couple started preparing for their wedding.
'There were people who questioned why we needed a wedding now. They even asked her not to have babies because they'd have her face,' he said.
'People still look at her with pity and think I did a big thing by marrying her. The reality is, I married the love of my life and my life changed for the better.
'Today, we have two kids and wonderful mornings to wake up together.'
Despite getting cruel remarks about her disfigurement, Jayaprakash said looks didn't discourage him from falling deeply in love with her.
'Today, I am married to my teenage crush,' he said.
'She became my love. Love isn't about a face or imposed conditions or external beauty. It is a connection of souls. It feels right.
'All I know is that I love her to the moon and back, infinity and beyond, forever.'
